I am using openSUSE 10.3 on VBox on Ubuntu, I am trying to install VBox's guest additions but it needs the build & header files of Linux 2.6.22.5.31, using yast2 I can't find them.

Any Ideas ?
Thanks :)

the header is there you selected it... you need the kernel-source too and you're good to go :D

So build = source = 243.4 MB = Bad news :( ?

It worked for me that way... and yes I know it's a lot of download if you have a slow connection (or a small virtual HDD).

It is too slow inside VBox although in other distro(s) & XP networking is fine!!!

I heard that the last version of openSUSE was better specially regarding package management so I will download & use it.

Thanks RebounD11.
